On 9th May, 16th June and 28th August doctors removed tissue adhesions in the elbow, which means that it is prepared for the first exercise. Elbow is no longer immobilized, excercises in last stage.

Hand and its bones - multiple fractures with crushings, displacements with spare fragments: all bones were set and reinforced, normal blood circulationin the hand was restored. Not given the scale of damage to the nerve, according to Professor Luigi Celli, nerves begin to activate, on the way to recovery.Currently, Robert can bend his fingers completely, but has no much force in them.

Robert is standing by himself, he is walking independently.

Overall, Robert Kubica passed three very major surgeries, lasting a total of approximately 27 hours. There was also carried out a smaller procedure of improving fastening of titanium splints in his right leg. Tissue adhesions in the elbow removed in a two smaller procedures.

In the course of treatment are all cut, skin defects, it is expected that on the Pole's body will remain very large scars after the accident and operations. It should be noted that the wording "on the way to (full) recovery" refers to the recovery of fitness appropriate for normal functioning. Then there will be a need of training to prepare for the effort and the load which is felt while driving a racing car. Current treatments: hand;

Up to Kubica`s manager words Kubica will have same mobility in right hand and right leg as before accident.
